    Anyone who uses the terms synergy or "game changer" needs to be removed from the premises with extreme prejudice. Horrid, horrid little terms that demonstrate the user's brain is in sleep mode. X|

              Can I add "Paradigm" to that list? Along with "Leverage", "Diversity" and "Empowerment", please? If you need a hand to remove them from the premises, I have a rusty, blunt knife I am willing to bring along...
